Hi

I'm trying to link Marcel Despres and Francois Xavier Olivier Despres. I believe Francois had a son Marcel born abt. 1840. m. Suzane Corbin. I do know that Marcel had a son named Marcel b. 1868 m. Anastasie St. Germain and has a son Marcel b. 1998 m. Gertrude Dumond and they had a son Maurice married to Florence Bouchard and they had a son Alton Deprey. At some point with Marcel married to Gertrude the name changed from Despres to Deprey. If I could find a link or confirmation that would make Fracois my 5th ggrandfather. If someone could also explain why our name changed from Despres to Deprey, Duprey I would greatly appreciate the help.

Please e-mail me directly. I believe I can help sort all of this out for you. I am related to Marcel Despres, he married Alice Charette. He was my grandfather. I understand the confusion I finally got it all figured out at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City! geniomom@hotmail.com

Thank you! Trish

Surnames: Deprey, Dumond, Thibeault
Seeking information on my great grandfather, FELIX DEPREY (b. 3 May 1898 - d. April 1987) and his family.

Felix DEPREY was born somewhere in Maine and his last place of residence was New Britain, Connecticut.

Felix married my great grandmother Gertrude DUMOND whom I know nothing about.

Felix and Gertrude had children, one of which was my grandmother Rita DEPREY (b. 16 September 1930 - d. 8 June 2007) who was born somewhere in Maine and her last place of residence was Bristol, Connecticut.

Rita became Rita THIBEAULT when she married my grandfather Lorenzo Thibeault.

Thibeault children from Rita and Lorenzo include: Brenda (my mother), Earl, Cecil, Patricia, Lester, Michael, and Gilbert. I have more information on this family if needed.

Any information you have on FELIX DEPREY's parents or ancestry would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Casey

My name is Cherylann Deprey and Felix was my greatgrandfather. I have all the information you need. Your grandmother Rita and my grandfather Maurice were brother and sister. My father's name is Alton and he is the son of Maurice. Your grandmother "Rita" was born in Fort Kent Maine. I know your grandfather "Lorenzo" he actually lives down the street from me on South Main Street, next to Rita's sister Viola and brother Louis "Phil". Send me an email of exactly what you are looking for and I will give you all of the information I have. Better yet, if you send me your email I will send you an invite to my Ancestry.com family tree, which brings the deprey all the way back to the 1500's in France. And did you know that at one time we spelled our last name "Despres"? The Deprey side has quite a history from Main, Canada and France. My email address is cherylandjames04@att.net. Hope to hear from you. Your cousin Cherylann Deprey
